On Monday, October 24, 2016, there will be a Free-Con in Seattle for those that might not be attending a pre-con before the Pass Summit. Put on by Jason Brimhall and Wayne Sheffield, there’s a set of 6 sessions you can attend for free that day.

They are asking for a $25 lunch fee to cover lunch, but you can opt out. However, please don’t register if you can’t come. I’m sure plenty of people want to go and extra registrations can upset planning.

If you can come, the lineup is impressive:

Jason Brimhall

Wayne Sheffield

Grant Fritchey

Tjay Belt

Chad Crawford

Gail Shaw

This is an alternative to other pre-conference sessions that PASS puts on, and you have to chance to learn about PowerBI, Temporal Tables, Wait Stats, Impact Analysis, and Azure SQL Data Warehouse.

If you aren’t attending another event on Monday, perhaps you’d like to come to the Free-con and enjoy learning and discussing SQL Server with a few highly talented SQL Server pros.
